Here’s a nice little video from Canadian emcee Shad. Love the little tip of the cap to The Pharcyde’s Drop video at the end. Summery vibes for you readers even though right now, outside is greyer than 60′s architecture.

This Friday: Slipjam Long Player ft/ Rizzle & Wordsmith
May 31, 2010This Friday 4th June sees the return of the Slipjam Long Player. From 9pm at the Hope on Queens Rd, Brighton, there’ll be some heavy hip-hop going off, featuring Shelly Mack, DJ Ideal, and live sets from rising star Rizzle, as well as Wordsmith – one of the top rhymers in the UK in my opinion. Well worth going down and checking it out, especially if you’ve never been to a Slipjam before. Oh, did I mention its absolutely FREE to get in? Well it is. So go make it a packed night.

What Is Race – Jamal, Shrapnel & Big Lew
May 31, 2010Posting this video as it features a hot verse from one of the best up and coming spitters in the 273 right now. Mrisi aka Shapnel has been developing a buzz from his various projects, including his Black & Cracker collabs with another rising star, Mad Hatter. We had both of them on the radio show a month or so ago unleashing some freestyles, and I’m hoping we’ll see big things from them in the future. The track itself isn’t really my cup of tea, but Lil’ Shrap steals the track with his verse.

Canelason – La Rumba / Mode De Vie ft/ Dany Dan
May 29, 2010Yo I dropped Mode De Vie on the radio show last month, and was put on to the video recently, as well as another song, La Rumba. Really feeling both tracks, even though being English, my entire grasp of what the lyrics mean has to come translated via my multilingual homegirl JJ. Really feeling the flows on these two. Going out to all the heads who don’t mind getting into tracks they don’t totally understand. And to all my worldwide homeslicks, of course.

Rass Kass ft/ Royce 5’9″ – Attitudes 2012
May 28, 2010Nice new track from Rass Kassiano featuring Slaughterhouse’s Royce 5’9″. Produced by CSIK and Sick Jacken (Psycho Realm). Some hot bars right here. Good to see Rass back on form. When I first heard Soul on Ice a good few moons ago, I expected him to reach a higher level than where he currently is. Unfortunately, that has never happened, so fingers crossed he gets some good shit out in 2010. Enjoy.
